Question:

Paper towel stuck in rifle barrel.?

Spare me the judgment, I know I'm an idiot, but one day i was cleaning my rifle barrel with some paper towel and it got stuck, i tried a multitude of different things to get it out, but it is in there pretty good, there is also 2 pencils, a screw and some duct tape (because I'm an idiot) stuck in there, is there any way i can clear the barrel from the muzzle end without damaging the rifling?

Answer:

They have brass and aluminum rod at hardware storesIf you have a .30 caliber a 1/4 aluminum rod will not damage your barrelThat screw might so push with stuff between itSaw it off as not to have too much sticking out to bendPour a little soap and water down the barrel to soften the paper towelYou must have a .30 caliber or bigger because a pencil is close to 5/16 th.
